06 May 2014 HI Sandeep. I have already tried this one. But i could not find 4308 error code in the list.

06 May 2014 I suggest to refill the whole form again.

06 May 2014 Is ur version updated? The new FVU version is 4.2(updated on 26th of Feb'14)

06 May 2014 Yes. IT is RPU 3.9 and FVU 4.2

08 May 2014 Can anyone please help me ?


28 July 2025 The error **"T-FV-408 Invalid 'Total TDS by the current employer' (aggregate of the amount in column 323 of Annexure I)"** typically means there is a mismatch or inconsistency in the total TDS deducted reported in Annexure I of Form 24Q, especially related to salary details.

---

### Common reasons & fixes:

1. **Mismatch in TDS amount across Annexure I and Summary:**

* The total TDS deducted as per column 323 (which sums TDS deducted on salaries) might not match the total TDS declared in the summary or other parts of the return.
* Even if it's auto-filled, sometimes the software might not correctly aggregate data if there is some invalid or missing employee data.

2. **Data entry issue in Annexure I:**

* Check each deductee detail row for completeness, especially the TDS deducted column.
* Make sure the TDS deducted per employee is not negative or blank if applicable.

3. **Version incompatibility:**

* You said you are using RPU 3.9 and FVU 4.2. These versions should be compatible, but sometimes bugs occur.
* Try re-downloading the latest RPU version from the NSDL site and re-entering data.

4. **Corrupted file or data:**

* Sometimes, the file might be corrupted or have formatting issues.
* Try creating a new TDS return for the quarter, re-enter the data afresh instead of using the old file.

---

### Steps you can try:

* Validate each employee record in Annexure I for completeness and correctness.
* Check that the total TDS deducted for each employee is correctly entered.
* Check for any negative or zero values in TDS deducted column.
* Reopen the RPU utility, refresh the data and re-generate the return.
* If still error persists, create a fresh return file for the quarter and enter data again.
* Confirm you are using the latest version of RPU and FVU from the official NSDL TIN website.
* If all fails, contact NSDL helpdesk for support with error code T-FV-408.

If you want, you can share some anonymized sample data (like the TDS deducted figures per employee) and I can help check for inconsistencies. Would you like to try that?
